This is one of my "externally processed tweets" here, so stay with me...
I'm reading the book, "Never Enough, from Barista to Billionaire" by Andrew Wilkinson right now.
If you haven't read it, I highly recommend it. It's an incredible read.
I'm almost to the end and there's a part I just read where Andrew and his partner go visit several millionaires and billionaires looking for investors in various projects that they're doing.
The original takeaway they were looking for from this trip was not the end result.
The end result for them was actually something that really shocked them.
The potential investors that they were talking to were some of the richest people in the world. They could essentially buy anything they wanted.
YET there was this common theme that they noticed with each person that they spoke with. The theme was nothing they had was enough.
The guy with the $10 million home was envious of the guy with the $25 million home.
The guy that had yacht money was jealous of Jeff Bezos' super yacht money.
No one really felt that they had enough, even though they really did.
Coming off of this trip, Andrew realized he was in the same boat. The pursuit of money and security and wealth over and over again.
For me, after reading this, I realized that I'm on the beginning part of this journey, at least compared to Andrew and others with yacht money or super yacht money
...and that it's so important RIGHT NOW to find clarity in what enough actually is.
I just spent the last 10 years in a career that made me miserable. And now that I'm out of it and on my own, I feel like I'm cheating the system.
Like I'm living the dream.
The work that I'm doing and the people that I'm doing it with, everything about it is an absolute dream. Even a year ago, I wouldn't have believed that I would be here today.
And now that I am, of course I want more.
It's so natural to want more, to do more things, to have more influence, to make more money. I'm driven and motivated. Of course I want that. BUT, what is enough?
Have you asked yourself that recently?
How do you personally decide what enough is? I'm not exactly sure, but I believe it's about asking yourself the really hard questions and reverse engineering what that end result might look like for you.
Maybe it will change over time. But if you can find clarity in that end result NOW and then reverse engineer it, as you move along this journey and you get closer to that reverse engineered endpoint, it at least will be a reminder for you that at one point you believed this is enough.
You can then take a step back, reassess, and figure out your next move.
This is all very philosophical and most people won't finish this stream of consciousness tweet of mine, but MAYBE, just maybe, someone will and it will make them think through this as I am today. ;)
